== Binary heaps ==

Binary heaps are mutable collections that can contain any Scheme object provided there exists a total ordering on the objects expressed by an ''ordering procedure''.  They are intended to be a thin veneer over arrays.  Binary heaps are disjoint from other types of Scheme objects.

== Procedures ==

`(make-heap `''<''`)`

Constructs and returns a new empty heap.  ''Proc'' is the less-than procedure for the heap.

`(heap `''<''` `''element''` ...)`

Constructs and returns a new heap using ''<'' as the ordering procedure, and containing the ''elements''.  This operation should be O(n) in the size of the heap.

`(copy-heap` ''heap''`)`

Constructs and returns a new heap containing the elements of ''heap'' with the same ''<'' procedure.

`(heap? `''obj''`)`

Returns `#t` if ''obj'' is a heap, and `#f` otherwise.

`(heap-length? `''heap''`)`

Returns the number of elements in ''heap''.

`(heap-member? `''heap''` `''element''`)`

Returns `#t` if ''element'' is a member of ''heap'' and `#f` otherwise.

`(heap-add! `''heap''` `''element''`)`

Adds ''element'' to ''heap''.  Returns an unspecified value.  This operation should be O(log N) in the size of the heap.

`(heap-remove-smallest! `''heap''` `''element''`)`

Removes the smallest element of the heap (according to the ''<'' function) and returns it.  This operation should be O(log N) in the size of the heap.

`(heap-map `''proc''` `''heap''`)`

Applies ''proc'' to each element of ''heap'' in arbitrary order and constructs and returns a new heap containing the values of the applications.

`(heap-for-each `''proc''` `''heap''`)`

Applies ''proc'' to ''heap'' in arbitrary order, discarding the returned values.  Returns an unspecified value.

`(heap->list `''heap''`)`

Constructs and returns a new list containing the members of ''heap'' in arbitrary order.

`(heap->list! `''<''` `''heap''`)`

Constructs and returns a new list containing the members of ''heap'' in increasing order.  ''Heap'' may be destroyed in the process.

`(list->heap `''<''` `''list''`)`

Constructs and returns a new heap containing the elements of ''list'' and using ''<'' as the ordering procedure.  This operation should be O(n) in the size of the heap.

`(heap->vector `''heap''`)`

Constructs and returns a new vector containing the elements of ''heap'' in arbitrary order.

`(heap->vector! `''<''` `''heap''`)`

Constructs and returns a new vector containing the elements of ''heap'' in increasing order.  ''Heap'' may be destroyed in the process.

`(vector->heap `''<''` `''vector''`)`

Constructs and returns a new heap containing the elements of ''vector'' and using ''<'' as the ordering procedure.  This operation should be O(n) in the size of the heap.
